Rocking against Genocide
Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
A new documentary, "Screamers," tells the story of how the 1915 Armenian genocide in Turkey informs the music and activism of the multi-platinum metal band System Of A Down. We talk to the film's director, Carla Garapedian. Also: Composers Philip Glass and Robert Moran join us to talk about sharing the musical duties on the chamber opera "The Juniper Tree," a grim retelling of the Grimms Brothers fairy tale of the same name. Finally: the Copacabana is moving to make way for the number 7 train. Find out what's in store as we talk to the club's owner.
